Battery chemicals can be grouped under three main categories,
- electrolytes for secondary lithium-ion batteries,
- electrolytes for primary lithium batteries,
- electrolytes for super-capacitors.
As one of the four vital constituents of lithium batteries (i.e., anode, cathode, separator, electrolyte), electrolytes for lithium-ion batteries are composed of solvent, lithium salt solute and additives.
Responsible for transporting lithium ions, it is regarded as the “blood” of the battery, acting as a critical factor to ensure high voltage, high specific energy and other advantages of lithium-ion batteries.
Electrolyte for one million electric cars
A large Chinese battery manufacturer has been manufacturing electrolyte, the main component of lithium-ion batteries, for over a quarter of a century. Today it is the most popular way to power electric cars and electronic devices such as smartphones, laptops, Bluetooth headphones, and pacemakers. Such batteries perform better while being more environmentally and user-friendly: they have a longer life and feature high energy density..
In Srem, Poland, this large Chinese battery manufacturer has build a new facility in 2021. This new factory is designed to yield a production capacity of 40,000 tons of electrolyte per year. This large “European” proportion contributes to the other five factories in China which supply a total of 170,000 tons electrolyte per year.
The main purpose of the electrolyte production facility in Poland is for the automotive market and electric cars in particular. With this new factory, Poland and Srem in particular plays a large role in the European Lithium battery production for electric cars.
Jongia has been awarded to supply the agitators for the electrolyte production process. With a number of agitators tailor made for each of the process tanks, and equipped to serve the electrolyte production, Jongia has proven to be the right choice for agitators in the electrolyte battery production market!

Is Sodium-Ion the next generation sustainable Battery?
The sodium-ion battery (NIB or SIB) is a type of rechargeable battery that uses sodium ions (Na+) as its charge carriers. Its working principle and cell construction are almost identical with those of lithium-ion battery (LIB) types, but replace lithium with sodium.
Fermentation & Bioreactor Mixing Process
Bioreactors and Fermenters are culture systems to produce cells or organisms. They are used in various applications, including basic research and development, and the manufacturing of biopharmaceuticals, food and food additives, chemicals, and other products. A broad range of cell types and organisms can be cultivated in bioreactors and Fermenters, including cells (like mammalian cell lines, insect cells, and stem cells), microorganisms (like bacteria, yeasts, and fungi), as well as plant cells and algae. The words “Bioreactor” and “Fermenter” are basically the same thing.
